Forrester Boyd was formed in 1935 by the merger of Mr SM Forrester, who began practising in Grimsby in 1900 and Mr W Robson Boyd, who set up practice in 1910 and is now one of the largest independent chartered accountancy practices in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire region.

Number 26 South Saint Mary’s Gate was purchased when Forrester Boyd was born and is still home to our Grimsby office team.

As a result of meteoric growth in the first decade, Forrester Boyd expanded into Scunthorpe in 1937 and Louth in 1939. Through strong links with the fishing and food industries we also had an office on the docks until an incendiary raid on the pontoon by Hitler’s Luftwaffe in 1943 destroyed it.

forrester Boyd is a trading name of Forrester Boyd Robson Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales with company number 08370127 and registered office at Kingfisher Court, Plaxton Bridge Road, Woodmansey, Beverley, HU17 0RT.
